White House Bans CNN, NYT, Others From Participating In Media Briefing

[presence]

There is the distinct possibility that this is political "professional wrestling".

just vote harder

 

[Dr.3D]

Oh the drama of it all.

Reminds me of WWF Wrestling.

Either Donald or the press plays the heel, depending on the POV. Both sides win, as long as the fanbase is divided.

Ding ding ding we have a winner. Maintain the dialectic and win, that's their plan.

 

[Jamesiv1]

maybe its wrestling, maybe not.

what is hilarious though, is to hop over to youtube and watch some of the CNN crybabies lolol

 

[spudea]

**low growling, hissing noises**

Russian flags seen as Trump speaks at CPAC!

CNN was just confused. It was a PRESS briefing. Not a Democratic public relations meeting.

"CNN, New York Times, the Los Angeles Times, Politico shut out of White House gaggle with Sean Spicer today."

"Among the outlets not permitted to cover the gaggle were various news organizations that Trump has singled out in the past including CNN, The NYT, The Hill, Politico, BuzzFeed, the Daily Mail, BBC, the Los Angeles Times and the New York Daily News."

"Several non mainstream outlets were allowed into Spicer’s office, including Breitbart, the Washington Times and One America News Network. Several other major news organizations were also let in to cover the gaggle. That group included ABC, CBS, NBC, Fox, Reuters and Bloomberg, however AP and Time have boycotted the event."

Was RT present?

I know what happens when the press does not want your message to be heard, blackout.

Ala Ron Paul 2008 & 2012... Bunch of fuckers.

 

[AngryCanadian]

Ala Ron Paul 2008 & 2012... Bunch of $#@!ers.

Remember the same press that went agaisnt Pauls.

Maybe since trump is not being blacked out the media wants us to hear about him? What if he is not what he says he is, but in fact trying to distract those that want those things? It certainly has distracted the left, maybe ultimately it's distracting the right too? Who does that leave to pay attention to real issues?

I turned the radio on coming home and they were going apeshit. In fact, the "news" channel doesn't talk about much else.

Didn't bama do it to fox?

That makes him no different then Hillary and the rest of the political class. An enemy of Liberty.

Trump is nothing like Hillary. Can you imagine Hillary saying "Ask Jeff Zucker how he got his job?" at a press conference? He hates these people precisely because he knows them so well. That picture was from when Trump had The Apprentice and Zucker was head honcho at NBC. Trump wasn't a politician back then. He was TV Producer, and Zucker was the guy who decided how much he got paid and whether his show got canceled or not. Of course he's going to be friendly towards him.

Lying about Trump only makes him grow stronger.

Trust takes time to build up. And people hating here on Trump wipe their slate clean with every post.

Trump is doing everything deplorables elected him to do.

Libertarian criticisms I share but I have perspective. He is going to cut government, withdraw from large parts of the world and shore up economy.

Where's that "What you will now see from the media" thread?

Both Trump admin and the media are blacking out real news in favor of this reality show drama. Makes ya wonder what's going on behind the scenes, doesn't it? All this drama is coming off as very scripted and intentional to distract from actual foreign policy and economic news.

The neocon foreign policy is not leading from behind or withdrawing from large parts of the world, in fact it looks like we are just going to replace the power vacuum the ISIS is going to create.

The story of the week: Trump, the FBI and Russia. The rest is just Distraction.

Pay no attention to the man behind the curtain.
